Description: The Violin Concerto No. 3 in G major, K. 216, was composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in Salzburg in 1775. [edit] I. Allegro The first movement is in Sonata form, and it opens with the main G major theme played by the orchestra: a typical radiant Mozartian tune. The violin then repeats the beginning of the theme as a solo. After a short orchestral passage, the violin enters once again, by playing a G major broken chord in the form of minim-crotchet-crotchet-minim. The ornamented solo modulates from G to A Major, B minor and finally D Major, where the violin ends the passage with a low D after a sixteenth-notes only brilliant passage. As the orchestra plays, the melody goes from D Major to minor, when the violin enters with two minims and a descending D minor scale. The orchestra answers back to the violin, and this occurs several times, until the violin plays the exact same motif in C Major. Then, the melody turns to expressivo, and ultimately back into D major. After a small cadenza, the orchestra concludes the passage, and the solo violin re-appears in G major, exactly as in the first solo. A sudden change is noticeable from G major to A minor, to G major, E minor, D major, and finally G major again. After a rise to the fourth position in the solo violin, the movement concludes in G major.
